Agenda

Presenter:  Jiro Doke, Ph.D. Senior Application Engineer

Data Analysis with MATLAB (MATLAB Overview)

This is an overview of the MATLAB environment and demonstrates a typical engineering workflow for solving a technical problem. It is suitable for both new and existing users. Some of the concepts covered will be:

• Importing data from various sources
• Interactively performing analyses
• Automating analysis routines via automatic m-code generation
• Generating reports

Parallel Computing with MATLAB

This is an introduction to parallel and distributed computing in MATLAB. It addresses ways you can utilize additional resources (multi-core computers and/or network of computers) to deal with long running computations or large data sets in MATLAB.

• Overview of the Parallel Computing Toolbox
• Using additional resources for speeding up long running computations
• Distributing large data across workers

• Scaling up from single-core to multi-core to clusters
